2 Decades of Investing Around the World..

That’s a fancy way of saying I’ve gotten an MBA in hard knocks by getting my teeth kicked in through various investing (mis/ad)ventures.

I started writing back in 2014 about all of these ventures, just to keep track of what I was doing.

It was like journaling my investment ideas and travel stories, with no real intent other than to become a better investor.

Since then, I’ve launched multiple private investing vehicles with hundreds of outside investors. We’ve pursued deals throughout the Americas, Asia, Europe, Australia, and even Africa.

Everything that I write about is based on past experiences or specific opportunities that I am researching with the intent to pursue today.

Today, other than being a dad to three kids, I’m a full time fund manager.

What you can expect with a paid subscription:

The paid subscription forces me to share what I'm doing. I’ve averaged 30%+ returns in niche markets for years, and everything I write here is a direct look at my next moves.

If you become a paid subscriber, you are going to get:

• A deeply researched article based on a current trend or theme that I am personally looking to invest in. These articles go out once per week.

• Additional articles throughout the month that are complimentary to current ideas I’m interested in, or current event type of situations.

• Access to a group chat.

• Invites to dinners and events.

• Insights into what I’m doing with my fund.

• Whatever else I am up to - even any private market deals I’m looking at.

Some more:

When I first started writing about my investing and travel adventures, I had no idea what would happen next.

I had no plan. No agenda. Not even a pie-in-the-sky goal. I just wanted to share the interesting things I was getting involved in. I had been traveling and investing in far flung places since 2004, so the number of ‘you wouldn’t believe this’ kind of stories were overflowing from my mind.

Starting 2014 I began to document all of this while I was working as a professional firefighter in California. I traveled the world in my time off and invested in hidden opportunities in various countries.

The various ‘situations’ I found myself in included: getting robbed in the streets of Nicaragua by the police, to getting hired by the Government of Macau to help entrepreneurs, and investing in a private distribution company in Somalia.

I’ve invested in everything from real estate to psychedelics. I’ve built and sold companies.

I’ve lost a ton of money in stupid business deals... And I’ve made a couple bucks in some good ones...

I hope that you get inspired from my writing. Inspired to go out into the world and discover amazing places, new cultures, and most importantly just take action.

Today, I live in Florida with my family. I still get out into the world to look around new corners, but I also make sure to spend lots of time with my three kids.

Here are some more things you should know:

• I am not employed by anyone. Meaning, I choose whatever I want to write about. There is no company behind me with an agenda - it’s just me.

• I organize trips and dinners around the road. We’ve been to Ukraine, Colombia, China, the UK, Guyana, Canada, all over the US, Macau, Puerto Rico, Mexico, and more.

• I write 4+ times per month. Nothing is scheduled. I write when I think there is something important to say.
